Women-Workers in California.

Many women in the blue grass
regions of Kentucky and Missouri, on
the plains of Dakota, Kansas and
Nebraska, have become successful as
stock owners and shippers. But, on
investigation, it is found that it is
money in the hands of women used to
conduct the business. The real work
is performed by men who are hired and
trusted with the business. But garden
ing and fruit raising in this favorite
climate California; may be made to
mean work for women. Often the
ground which they secure is the virgin
soil and they hire the first blowing
done; then, if irrigation is necessary,
they pay tax which secures the water
for irrigating purposes. Then they
take hold of the business personally,
often, it is true, hiring assistance when
needed. and make great successes of
their plots. which may vary from ten
acres to several hundred acres.-M j.
